1 Therefore the first note covenant had also note rites of worship
and a worldly sanctuary.
2 For there was a tabernacle
prepared; the first part, wherein was the candlestick,
and the table, and the note loaves set on it, which
is called the note sanctuary.
3 And beyond the second
veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holy of holies,
having the golden censer,
4 and the ark of the covenant
which was overlaid all round with gold, and in which
was the golden pot note with the manna in it, and Aaron's
rod that budded, and the tables of the covenant;
5 and
over it the cherubims of glory shadowing the mercyseat:
of which it is not necessary now to speak particularly.
6 Now these things being thus disposed, the priests
always went into the first part of the tabernacle to perform
their daily services:
7 but into the second only the
high-priest went once a year; and that not without blood,
which he offered for himself, and for the sins of the
people committed through note ignorance.
8 The Holy Ghost
shewing by this, that the way into the Holy of holies
was not yet manifested, the first tabernacle note being yet
standing.
9 Which figure remains to the present time,
wherein note gifts and sacrifices are offered, that cannot
perfect the worshipper as to his conscience,
10 relating
only to meats and drinks, and different washings, and
such carnal ordinances as were note required till the time of
reformation.
11 But Christ being come an high-priest of
the good things to come, hath entered once for all into
the holy places, through a greater and more perfect tabernacle,
not made with hands, that is, not of note this
building,
12 nor by the blood of goats and calves, but by
-- --
his own blood, having obtained eternal redemption for
us.
13 For if the blood of bulls and goats, and the ashes
of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the
purification of the flesh;
14 how much more shall the
blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered
himself spotless to God, purify your conscience from
dead works, that ye may serve the living God?
15 And on this account He is the mediator of a new
note covenant, that undergoing death for the redemption
of transgressions against the first note covenant, they that
are called might receive the promise of an eternal inheritance.
16 For note where a testament is, there is a necessity
of note proving the death of the testator.
17 For a testament
is valid after men are dead, note but is of no force while the
testator is living.
18 Whence neither was the first covenant
entered into without blood:
19 for when every command
was spoken according to the law, by Moses to all the
people, he took the blood of calves and goats, with
water and scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled note the
book note and all the people,
20 saying, this is the blood of
the covenant, which God hath enjoined note you.
21 And
the tabernacle, and all the vessels of public worship he
likewise sprinkled with blood.
22 And according to the
law almost all things are purified with blood; and without
shedding of blood there is no remission.
23 It was therefore necessary that the representations of
things in the heavens should be purified with these; but
the heavenly things themselves with more excellent sacrifices
than these.
24 For Christ is not entered into holy
places made with hands, which were but types of the true
ones; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence
of God for us:
25 nor to offer Himself often, as the
high-priest entereth into the holy of holies every year
with the blood of others;
26 (for then He must indeed have
suffered often since the foundation of the world) but
now once at the conclusion of the note ages He hath been
made manifest for the abolishing of sin by the sacrifice
of himself.
27 And as it is appointed to men once to die,
-- --
and after this the judgement;
28 so Christ, having been
once offered to bear the sins of many, shall appear the
second time without sin, to those who are waiting for
Him, unto salvation.
